Zooming-in on cluster radio relics -- I. How density fluctuations explain the Mach number discrepancy, microgauss magnetic fields, and spectral index variations
Joseph Whittingham, Christoph Pfrommer, Maria Werhahn +2
It is generally accepted that radio relics are the result of synchrotron emission from shock-accelerated electrons. Current models, however, are still unable to explain several asp…
Anisotropic thermal conduction on a moving mesh for cosmological simulations
Rosie Y. Talbot, Rüdiger Pakmor, Christoph Pfrommer +4
In weakly collisional, strongly magnetised plasmas such as the intracluster medium (ICM), hot accretion flows and the solar corona, the transport of heat and momentum occurs primar…
Environment matters: stronger magnetic fields in satellite galaxies
Maria Werhahn, Rüdiger Pakmor, Rebekka Bieri +3
Magnetic fields are ubiquitous in the universe and an important component of the interstellar medium. It is crucial to accurately model and understand their properties in different…
Simulating Radio Synchrotron Morphology, Spectra, and Polarization of Cosmic Ray Driven Galactic Winds
H. -H. Sandy Chiu, Mateusz Ruszkowski, Timon Thomas +2
The formation of galaxies is significantly influenced by galactic winds, possibly driven by cosmic rays due to their long cooling times and better coupling to plasma compared to ra…
